Thread: Unlocking unplayable factions

    Default Unlocking unplayable factions

    Is there a mod already that is Vanilla + the unplayable factions. I like the game as it is atm i just would like to play as some of the minor factions. I have read about it being done on MTW before by just changing a single line.

    Is there already a mod for this, or if there is not is there a quick way of modding this?

    For RTW and M2TW it was just a copy & paste job. E:TW however, is more involved. There is a mod or two out there, or you can do it yourself.

    This should unlock all the factions for you. It changes nothing else.

    do a search for the current startpos.esf. I can't remember the path at the moment.

    What does it do after you select a faction? Does it matter what faction?

    Is there any way to play as the "unplayable" minor factions, such as Louisiana?

    Yes, but the protectorate factions run into trouble if you do it yourself.

    The other minor factions are in that link I provided, let me know if its out of date and i'll update and make another.

    If by "trouble", you mean that the game crashes after a number of turns, then yes, they do indeed. There's no way to fix this?

    Yeah, the mods would be out of date, most likely.

    You can easily do it yourself though,

    Empire only comes in a Steam vision.

    Unfortunately, it won't work with the current patch, due to the file having changed a number of times.

    You can download the mod tools and convert it yourself if you'd like.
